CHAPTER II LITERATURE REVEW
A. The Definition of Teaching
According to Brown 2000:7 teaching is guiding, facilitating, enabling the learner to learn, and setting the condition for learning. Meanwhile, Cole and Chan
1994:2 in their book, Teaching Principles and Practice, states that teaching is a complex phenomenon that takes into account a wide range of personal
characteristic, profession skill and specialized bases of knowledge. Tyson and Caroll in Muhibbin Syah 1995:183 states that teaching is
“…a way working students…a process of interaction…the teacher do something to student; the student do something in return.” From this definition, Muhibbin
concludes that teaching is a way and a process of reciprocity relationship between students and teacher who both of them actively do activities.
Meanwhile Biggs in Muhibbin Syah 1995:183 divides teaching concept to be three teaching definitions.
1. Quantitative definition related to the number of subjects being taught. In
this definition, teaching is the transmission of the knowledge. Teachers only need mastering subject that they teach and present it to their students.
2. Institutional definition Related to the institution school. In this definition,
teaching is the efficient orchestration of teaching skill. Teachers are demanded to adapt some teaching methods for many kinds of students
having different talent, ability and need.

3. Qualitative definition related to ideal quality of the outcome. In this
definition, teaching means the facilitation of learning. Teachers interact to their students in a specific ways adjusted to the qualitative concept; this
is intended to encourage students learning to create their own meaning and understanding.
Based on the definitions stated above, it can be concluded that teaching is an activity done by teachers do the learning process including giving instruction,
giving skill, and transferring knowledge intended to make pupils understanding the learning subjects. A good teaching will fulfill or facilitate the learners
need and lead them to a better understanding of the subjects. Therefore, teaching requires teachers to create a better learning process by adjusting
their teaching technique to the real condition of their students. This can help students accepting knowledge transferred by their teacher.
